Football: Take away half of Boss Mei's skills at the beginning

Losing this game is not the end of the world. The league is so long that it is normal to lose occasionally.

However, the problems reflected in this game still need to be taken seriously by Parma.

Because the team still has problems in dealing with the intensive schedule, which will undoubtedly affect their results.

What's worse is that they will have two consecutive games in the next game, which is a huge test for them.

After they play Lazio, they will play against Sassuolo at home three days later, that is, on September 26, and then play against Torino at home on September 29, against Shakhtar at home in the Champions League on October 2, and challenge SPAL away on October 5.

Although the opponents in these four consecutive games are not particularly strong, this intensive schedule is enough for Parma to drink a pot.

Time soon came to September 26.

Parma's players returned to their home court to face Sassuolo.

In this game, Parma still rotated, and the starting center was replaced by Haaland.

Haaland is in very good form in the new season. He scored five goals on all fronts and helped the team win several games.

And De Zerbi also rest assured to rotate him with Mateo, so as to ensure that the team's forward strength is not affected.

In this game, Parma, who returned to the home court, obviously recovered. They dominated the whole game, and Haaland and Jota scored a goal in the 38th and 64th minutes respectively, and finally helped the team win the opponent 2-0.

Veteran Rigoni, who was replaced by the midfield in the last game, also came on the bench in the 65th minute, winning some rest time for the main players.

Although the veteran can no longer play high-end games, he can still play appropriately in some games where the victory is already determined, winning some rest time for the main players.

After playing against Sassuolo, Parma ushered in the challenge of Torino at home.

In this game, Matteo started, and his partners were Kulusevski and Gervinho.

Since the starting center forward of Torino was Belotti, a national team rival, Matteo was very excited in this game. He scored two goals with his head and feet in the first half, helping the team to take a 2-0 lead in the first half.

In the second half, he assisted Gervinho to score, and finally Parma beat Torino 3-0 at home, continuing their good form.

After losing to Lazio, they used two consecutive wins to prove that their form was fine.

But this victory was not perfect. Three minutes after Gervinho scored, the Ivorian had a thigh strain and had to be replaced.

As he got older, his injuries increased, and this time he was injured because of fatigue caused by the intensive schedule.

He will be out for a month because of this.

This is undoubtedly a major blow to Parma, which is now facing a intensive schedule.

But this also made Messias smell an opportunity.

Now his position in the team is very awkward. He can't get playing time from Mateo and Haaland in the forward position. The shadow striker position has not appeared in De Zerbi's plan for the time being, so he can only find playing time here as a winger.

Due to the presence of Gervinho, Kulusevski and Jota, his playing time as a winger is also very small.

But Gervinho's injury gave him hope of playing.

Originally, De Zerbi planned to replace Kulusevski in the second half of the game against Torino so that he could save his energy to play in the Champions League three days later, but due to Gervinho's injury, he could only let the Swede play the whole game.

This also led to Kulusevski's physical condition not being very good.

Now there is suspense about Parma's starting left winger position.

Messias obviously discovered this problem, so he was particularly active in training in the past few days, hoping that the head coach would favor him and give him a chance to play in the Champions League.

But when De Zerbi announced the starting lineup, he immediately felt a deep disappointment.

Because De Zerbi actually chose to let the young teenager Kontu start and not let himself play!

For a while, he began to doubt himself.

If Kontu's appearance order was always before his, then he might never have a chance to succeed in Parma!

However, De Zerbi did not have the energy to consider his feelings at this time. He was now working on a game plan.

And he let Kontu start directly not on impulse, but after careful consideration.

He also found that this leftA foot player is not only fast, his technical ability and one-touch passing skill make him the player behind the center.

He was a winger before, so he also intends to let him play the role of the core organizer on the wing.

This kind of core organizer on the wing can form a dual core with McAllister, which gives Parma one more outlet in the frontcourt.

And this game is a good opportunity for him to practice this idea!

In this game, he seems to be 4231, but he requires players to switch formations at any time, from 4231 to 4222.

That is, Kontu comes to the middle and Jota moves forward to the front line, which can also play the organizing and connecting ability of Kontu and McAllister.

And his arrangement soon received results.

In the 15th minute of the match between Parma and Miners, Kontu got the ball on the right.

He looked at the situation in the frontcourt and decisively chose to cut inside with the ball.

Klaus had already moved to the side, and McAllister came to the left side of the center, obviously leaving him space to handle the ball.

Kontu looked at the situation in the front court and decided to pass the ball to Klaus on the side.

After receiving the ball, Klaus chose to kick the ball directly, but his cross was headed out by the miners' central defender Matuyeko.

But the ball fell to Kontu's feet outside the penalty area again.

He flicked the ball and was about to kick the ball directly.

The opponent's midfielder Stepanenko hurried forward to block, but Kontu just made a fake move. He gently rubbed the ball and sent it into the penalty area!

At this time, Jota had already moved forward, and he met the ball and volleyed it directly!

The football flew directly into the goal like a cannonball!

And this ball was due to Kontu's calm handling in front of the penalty area!

The feeling of lifting a heavy weight with ease was actually very much like a football master, not a young man who just came on the court!

Messias on the bench couldn't help but sigh.

He would never be able to make such a pass in his lifetime.

It seems that this guy will be ahead of him in the order of appearance!
